Blue - now that's a lot closer. Kokanee would be my preference.
Fosters...Lordy...you shoulda seen the size of the Fosters tin Paul
was served in Manhattan! The tin was so big T took it home to show her
friends.


Must have been one of those 'oil cans' That was the only way you could

get
it in the states 20 years ago (now I'm showing my age ;-) )


20 years ago in the States was the first time I had one that size too. We
must be of similar ages.

These recent ones were 24 ounces but I have a feeling the older ones might
have been even bigger.

Never saw one like that when I was in Australia, so I don't
know what that's all about.

BTW, in Oz, I discovered that only tourists order Fosters. It's XXX or
DB there, it seems. But the Aussies make good beer.


Those liters of beer went down easy in Munich too!


A beer fest is something I've always wanted to go to but so far haven't
managed.

I also liked the 1/2 wheat beer and 1/2 lemonade.......didn't get you
hammered in the middle of the day :-)


What's wrong with getting hammered in the middle of the day then? :-)
